Right now we only have Type::NUMBER, which accepts any PHP number of any length. Even floats, just like PHP. I don't like this, especially when working with databases.

I propose that we replace Type::NUMBER with int sizes:

Name	Value
`UINT8`	255
`INT8`	127
`UINT16`	65535
`INT16`	32767
`UINT24`	16777215
`INT24`	8388607
`UINT32`	4294967295
`INT32`	2147483647
`UINT64`	2^64-1
`INT64`	2^63-1
